Celebrity Spa Party: Tru Renewal by Ramona

It was a nice warm evening on October 20th, and I was excited as I made my way into New York City’s Equinox Spa on Second Avenue. I had been invited to a Celebrity Spa Party featuring Ramona Singer’s Tru Renewal skin care line. After getting hooked on Tru Renewal’s Ultra Repair Cream, I was eager to see the rest of the skin care line. Not to mention, I was looking forward to meeting Ramona.

I was greeted at the Spa by the very friendly staff and then was introduced to Ramona. She was so delightful, a truly wonderful host with a great enthusiasm for her products. The skin care was available for people to sample, the room was packed with a great energy, and I was happy to see that the other housewives from The Real Housewives of New York were there to support Ramona’s event. Facials and massages featuring Tru Renewal products were available, with a portion of the proceeds benefitting breast cancer survivors. Ramona made my night, by treating me to a luxurious massage. I was so pleased to learn from the massage therapist that Equinox Spa would be carrying the Tru Renewal skin care line for sale, as well as incorporating it into their spa treatments.

After I was thoroughly relaxed from my massage, I took a look at the entire skin care line and was really impressed with all the products. If you are looking for natural skin care, look no further. Tru Renewal skin care is packed full of all-natural ingredients including liquid oxygen, vitamins, algae extracts, and purified water. One of the best features is that it is good for all skin types, especially sensitive skin.

The party was a hit with plenty of appetizers, drinks, goody bags featuring Tru Renewal ultra repair cream, and of course the wonderful facials and massages which allowed guests to sample the products first-hand. I walked away refreshed and even more excited about the skin care line. If you are in the New York City area, I’d recommend a trip to Equinox Spa at 1429 2nd Avenue (between 74th and 75th St) to give the products a try for yourself. They are also available online at RamonaSinger.com.

Ramona Singer for HSN: gorgeous estate jewelry…gorgeous prices

If you follow my beauty reviews, you’ll recall I recently raved about Ramona Singer of the Real Housewives of New York, and her amazing new skincare line. Well, I’m very excited to let you know all about her gorgeous collection of art deco, estate-inspired jewelry

Ramona is a graduate of FIT with a very extensive background in fashion. Taking influences from her own collection of estate pieces, Ramona has designed a gorgeous collection of earrings, pendants, bracelets, and rings. The pieces are exquisitely detailed in rhodium-plated sterling silver, and are set with various precious and semi-precious stones. In designing her pieces, Ramona wanted to offer affordable, timeless pieces that can be passed down to future generations.

In designing this jewelry line, Ramona really went all-out on the details. Rhodium-plating keeps the jewelry looking brand new, and the pieces are finished very beautifully with intricate details that you don’t see very often in affordable jewelry.

Most pieces average between $200-$500. My personal favorite is the pink topaz and diamond cuff bracelet, which Ramona said was inspired by her own estate piece.

The line is exclusive to Home Shopping Network and Ramona and her gorgeous jewelry will be featured on HSN on September 14^th at 10pm EST, and September 13^th at 11pm PST. I will definitely be watching, and I hope you will check it out as well. If you can’t wait (like me), head over to HSN.com and start shopping for Ramona’s gorgeous jewelry right now!

Tru Renewal by Ramona Singer: ‘Real Housewife of New York’ creates really great skincare

I’m sure I’m not the only one who indulged myself Tuesday nights by watching the Real Housewives of New York. It was a fun season with a great group of ladies! I was especially excited to see during one of the last episodes that Ramona Singer was launching a skincare line. I am as passionate about skincare as I am about cosmetics. After all, your skin is your canvas, and your makeup looks better when your skin is at its best.

I was quick to research Ramona’s skincare and got in touch with her regarding her products. She is super friendly, really informative, and such a genius for creating this wonderful line of natural products for all skin types. Her line is called Tru Renewal by Ramona and I was lucky enough to sample her amazing Ultra Repair Cream with Algae Enzymes for 6 weeks. I am happy to report that within just 2 weeks I had really noticeable results and was very impressed with this cream. It is light, water based, all-natural, and loaded with ingredients that are good for your skin.

When I asked Ramona why she decided to launch a skincare line, she very honestly said it was initially for selfish reasons. She never quite felt satisfied with the skincare lines she had tried, including many prescription brands, and saw the need for something that worked (and worked well) for all skin types, including Ramona’s ultra sensitive skin. I was intrigued by the algae enzymes and wanted to know more. Ramona explained: “Algae contains planktons which are the building blocks of all cells and life. This helps to rebuild your skin. This is the key ingredient that works on transforming the texture of your skin, and you will see a difference in 4 to 6 weeks.”

On to the great news about Tru Renewal - I do see major results! Within two weeks of using the Ultra Repair Cream with Algae Enzymes twice a day, I noticed tighter, firmer, clearer, fresher and younger looking skin. I actually felt my skin getting firmer instantly after use. I noticed lines in my forehead fading. I abandoned my entire skincare regimen and simplified my routine by replacing a multitude of products for this one cream. I just can’t say enough about it!

I can only hope that Ramona decides to increase her product line to include all-natural age-defying cosmetics! She is truly a woman who loves and appreciates beauty…both inside and out! Her skincare line takes care of the woman from within, and her new jewelry line helps a woman express her beauty on the outside. If you are interested in trying Tru Renewal by Ramona products, you can purchase them at online and look forward to testers and displays in many of Manhattan’s premier pharmacy and beauty supply shops. Ramona also has a gorgeous jewelry line available at both www.truefaithjewelry.com and HSN.

With all the skincare lines to choose from, who knew it would take a ‘Real Housewife‘ to come up with what we all seek most…something that really works!
